Panthers at Rangers projected goalies

Sergei Bobrovsky (3-2-1, 3.47 GAA, .875 SV%) vs. Igor Shesterkin (4-0-1, 1.98 GAA, .932 SV%, 1 SO)

Bob was pulled Tuesday night after giving up 5 goals in 2 periods, stopping 11 fired his way. He has allowed 3+ goals in 4 straight and 5 of 6 this season. He hasn’t been confirmed, and this one could ultimately go to Spencer Knight.

Shesterkin has been rock solid aside from a 6-goal performance against Utah Oct. 12. He stopped 21 of 23 fired his way Tuesday against Montreal. He was 1-1-0 with a 2.91 GAA and .898 SV% in 2 starts against the Cats last year.

Prediction

Rangers 4, Panthers 2

Moneyline

The only concern that I have at press time is that neither goalie has been confirmed. Only Shesterkin has props available, and that’s enough for me to determine where we’re going here. The Rangers win, but they’ve won 4 straight by a combined 20-6 score.

PASS, and take the spread.

Puck line/Against the spread

Here are the final scores of the Rangers’ 4 wins this season: 4-1, 5-2, 4-1 and 7-2. Meanwhile, the Panthers have lost 3 multi-goal games out of 4 this year.

Take the RANGERS -1.5 (+170).

Over/Under

The Over is 6-2-0 for the Panthers thus far, and the Rangers are 3-2-1 O/U.  This Over would hit in the last 3 regular-season meetings between the teams, and I’m all about OVER 5.5 (-120).

Panthers at Rangers projected goalies

Sergei Bobrovsky (36-17-4, 2.37 GAA, .915 SV%, 6 SO) vs. Igor Shesterkin (36-17-2, 2.58 GAA, .913 SV%, 4 SO)

Bobrovsky was one of the top goalies in the NHL during the regular season with his SV% ranking 7th, his wins and GAA both being tied for 3rd-best, and his SOs tied for 1st. He has been the Panthers top choice during the postseason and has allowed 9 goals through the 1st 4 games in this series.

Shesterkin was also one of the NHL’s premier goalies during the regular season ranking in the top-10 in SV%, SOs, and wins while his GAA was good for 11th. He has been the most-used goalie for the Rangers throughout their playoff stretch and has allowed 10 goals in the 4 games in the series.

Panthers at Rangers picks and predictions

Prediction

Panthers 3, Rangers 2

Moneyline

BET PANTHERS (-125).

This series has been close with each of the last 3 games seeing OT play. The Panthers got their 1st OT win on Tuesday and have held the Rangers to 2 goals or fewer in 3 of the 4 games while scoring 3 or more in 3 of the 4. Heading back on the road in a critical Game 5, expect Florida to continue its dominant defense while putting the pressure on New York offensively.

Puck line/Against the spread

PASS.

With such a close series, there is no value on the puck line in either direction.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 5.5 (-130).

Three of the 4 games in this series have hit Under 5.5 including 2 games that have seen OT. The Panthers have hit the Under 6 times in their last 10 games scoring 3 or fewer goals 7 times over that span. The Rangers have hit the Under 5 times in their last 8 games while scoring 3 goals or fewer 6 times during that span.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”5″ ]

The Stanley Cup will be hoisted soon, and with it another great season in the books. However, bettors can stay in the action through the dog days until the puck is dropped again at these online casino real money sites.

Florida Panthers at New York Rangers Game 1 odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Florida Panthers at New York Rangers odds and lines, with NHL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Florida Panthers and New York Rangers meet Wednesday in Game 1 of their best-of-7 Eastern Conference Final. Puck drop from Madison Square Garden is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET (ESPN/ESPN+). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Panthers vs. Rangers odds, and make our expert NHL picks and predictions.

The Panthers finished off the Tampa Bay Lightning in 5 games in the 1st round, and edged the Boston Bruins in 6 games in the 2nd round. The past 3 games were 1-goal games, and each ended up going Under, after a 6-0 run to the Over.

Florida has posted an impressive 4-1 mark on the road in 5 games in the postseason, including winning all 3 games in Boston. The only game the Panthers lost was an elimination game at Amalie Arena in Tampa in Game 4, when the team was already up 3-0 in the series.

As a favorite, Florida is 8-3 in the playoffs, and 3-1 on the road as a favorite. The Over is 3-2 in 5 playoff road games, but the Under has cashed in the past 2 instances.

For the Rangers, they swept the Washington Capitals in the 1st round, outscoring the Caps 15-7, while splitting the Over-Under. New York held a 3-0 series lead against Carolina, but lost the next 2 games to go back to Raleigh for a Game 6. They dropped the most recent game at home, losing 4-1 in Game 5 to Carolina, but New York is still 4-1 at MSG in these playoffs.

The Rangers are an underdog for the 7th consecutive game. They’re 4-2 in 6 games as an underdog in the playoffs, including 2-1 on home ice. They Over is 5-2 in the past 7 games for the Blueshirts.

These teams met 3 times in the regular season, with Florida winning twice, including 1 of the 2 meetings in Manhattan. The Rangers won the most recent meeting 4-3 in a shootout at MSG on March 23. In 2 of the 3 regular-season meetings, we had a 1-goal game.

The Over cashed in all 3 games this season, and the total has gone high at an amazing 18-0-1 clip in the past 19 in this series. The last time we had an Under result between these teams, James Reimer outdueled Henrik Lundqvist in a game in New York on Nov. 20, 2016.

Panthers at Rangers projected goalies

Sergei Bobrovsky (8-3-0, 2.37 GAA, .902 SV% — 2024 playoffs) vs. Igor Shesterkin (8-2-0, 2.40 GAA, .923 SV% — 2024 playoffs)

Bobrovsky allowed 4 goals in Game 1 against the Boston Bruins, which was rather uncharacteristic. Bench boss Paul Maurice stuck with him, and Bob allowed just 8 goals in the final 5 games of the Bruins series, winning 4 of those starts.

Shesterkin allowed at least 3 goals in each of the past 3 games, including 4 goals in Game 4 in Carolina. He was tasked with a lot of saves, however, stopping 183 of the 198 shots he faced, good for a .924 SV% in the final 5 games of the Hurricanes series.

Prediction

Rangers 4, Panthers 3

Moneyline

The RANGERS (-110) opened as slight underdogs on home ice, but now it’s essentially a pick ’em.

The money has started to pour in on the home team, with nearly two-thirds of the bets, and roughly 60% of the money, backing the Blueshirts.

New York should probably be favored, even though it lost 2 of 3 to Florida in the regular season. This is a team which missed the President’s Trophy by a single point, and it had the best point total in the Eastern Conference. The disrespect for New York, especially against Carolina, was felt in the early games of that series when it was an underdog on home ice in both Games 1 and 2. The Rangers won. Look for that to happen again in this series opener.

Puck line/Against the spread

The Rangers +1.5 (-275) will cost you nearly 3 times your potential return, if you’re not quite sold on the Rangers, and would like a little insurance. That’s an awful bet, frankly, and not a good long-term betting strategy. If you like New York, just bet it straight up.

AVOID.

Over/Under

OVER 5.5 (-110) is the best play on the board in this series opener.

The Over run of 19-0-1 in the past 20 meetings between these teams is unbelievable, and we had a perfect 3-for-3 on Overs in the 3 regular-season battles.

It’s hard to believe we’re not going to have an Under at some point in this series, but you have some huge stones if you bet it to happen in Game 1 based on that history.

Florida Panthers at New York Rangers odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Florida Panthers at New York Rangers odds and lines, with NHL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Florida Panthers (41-16-4) take on the New York Rangers (40-17-4) Monday at Madison Square Garden. Puck drop is set for 7 p.m. ET (ESPN+). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Panthers vs. Rangers odds, and make our expert NHL picks and predictions.

The Panthers shut out the Detroit Red Wings 4-0 Saturday, covering as -164 road favorites. It was their 4th straight win, and they are 10-1-0 over the last 11 games. They’ve been very stingy defensively as they have allowed just 16 goals during that stretch (1.5 goals per game). C Aleksander Barkov, who has just 14 goals this season, is starting to turn it on with 3 goals in the last 4 games and 3 assists in the last 2 contests.

The Rangers lost a tough one Saturday, 4-3 in a shootout at the Toronto Maple Leafs as +113 underdogs. It was their 2nd loss in 3 games, but they are 10-1-1 in the last 12. C Vincent Trocheck had 2 goals against Toronto, and he has matched his 22 goals from last season in 21 fewer games. LW Artemi Panarin continues to rack up points with 9 in his last 5 games.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Panthers at Rangers projected goalies

Sergei Bobrovsky (30-11-2, 2.30 GAA, .918 SV%, 4 SO) vs. Igor Shesterkin (26-12-2, 2.66 GAA, .911 SV%, 1 SO)

Both goalies have been confirmed, and this should be an epic matchup with a playoff vibe. “Bob” continued his stellar play with a 21-save shutout over Detroit Sunday. He was 6-1-0 with a 1.57 GAA and .946 SV% in 7 February starts. He beat the Rangers in a 4-3 home game Dec. 29,  making 31 saves on 34 shots.

Shesterkin hasn’t been as unbelievable as he was the last 2 seasons, but he’s rounding into form. He stopped 31 of 34 shots he saw against Toronto Saturday. Shesterkin was 7-0-0 with a 1.72 GAA and .953 SV% in February. He has not faced the Panthers this season.

Panthers at Rangers picks and predictions

Prediction

Panthers 3, Rangers 2

Moneyline

The Panthers won the lone matchup this season vs. the Rangers, 4-3 in South Florida as -143 home favorites. C Carter Verhaeghe scored the eventual winning goal with 6:23 to go and the Over (6.5) cashed.

The Panthers have not won at MSG since 2019, but they are playing at a rung above the Rangers right now. As mentioned, they have allowed just 16 goals in their last 11 games.

We’re bucking trends in this one, so buckle up and TAKE FLORIDA (-125).

Puck line/Against the spread

I don’t like either side of the puck line here, however, I love SERGEI BOBROVSKY OVER 26.5 SAVES (-115).

He had 31 against the Rangers earlier this season. Toss out Detroit’s 21 shots in the Saturday game, and he made 27+ saves in 5 of 6 starts.

Over/Under

The last 10 times these teams have faced one another, we saw 7 goals in each. The Rangers are playing fairly well offensively, but they can be feast or famine. Over their last 10 games, they were held to 3 goals or fewer in half of them. They are 4-6 O/U over the last 10, and Florida is 3-7.

Again, we’re bucking trends here, and I’m looking for a tightly contested 3-2 game here. There is a chance we have a push, but I’m comfortable with the UNDER 6 (-120).

Florida Panthers at New York Rangers odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Monday’s Florida Panthers at New York Rangers odds and lines, with NHL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Florida Panthers (10-0-1) face the New York Rangers (6-3-3) Monday at Madison Square Garden. Puck drop is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Panthers vs. Rangers odds and lines, and make our expert NHL picks, predictions and bets.

The Panthers haven’t lost a game in regulation through 11 outings, with their only setback a 3-2 shootout loss in Boston on Oct. 30. In its most recent outing, Florida dealt Carolina its first regulation loss of the season.

The Rangers had a rough time in Western Canada, picking up just two points in the past three games in Vancouver, Edmonton and Calgary. After opening the road trip with a 3-1 win in Seattle, the Blueshirts lost to the Canucks in OT Tuesday, 3-2, and to the Oilers in OT Friday, 6-5. The roadie wrapped up with a 6-0 humbling against the Flames Saturday.

Panthers at Rangers projected goalies

Spencer Knight (4-0-1, 2.51 GAA, .918 SV%) vs. Igor Shesterkin (5-2-2, 2.30 GAA, .930 SV%, 1 SO)

Knight turned aside 30 of the 32 shots he faced Saturday in a win over the previously unbeaten Carolina Hurricanes. He has a 1-0-1 record while allowing three goals on 64 shots in two road outings this season.

Shesterkin was on the losing end of that 6-0 loss in Calgary, but he should get a chance to start this one. That was an anomaly, as he had been tremendous before that outing.

Panthers at Rangers odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Panthers 3, Rangers 2

Money line

The PANTHERS (-120) are the lean, even though they’re just plain old due for a loss, and facing the Rangers (+100) in their barn is a difficult assignment. Yes, the underdog is 9-2 in the past 11 in this series, but Florida hasn’t been red-hot like this before.

Florida has won five straight meetings against Metropolitan Division opponents, while going 8-1 in the past nine against Eastern Conference foes. New York has actually won just one of the past six games at home, while going 1-4 in the past five as a home ‘dog.

Against the spread

The Rangers +1.5 (-280) will cost you nearly three times your potential return, and that’s just too expensive for insurance.

AVOID.

Over/Under

UNDER 5.5 (-105) is the lean in this Monday evening affair. While you’ll be playing against a bunch of head-to-head trends, those aren’t as important since the teams have a much different complexion than the past.

The Under has connected in five straight on the road for the Panthers. The Under is also 7-0-1 in the past eight against Eastern Conference foes for the Rangers, while going 8-3-1 in the previous 12 games overall.
